AlixPartners

At AlixPartners, we solve the most complex and critical challenges by moving quickly from analysis to action when it really matters; creating value that has a lasting impact on companies, their people, and the communities they serve. By understanding, respecting, and honoring the needs of our employees, clients, and communities, AlixPartners actively promotes an inclusive environment. We strongly believe in the value that diversity brings to our experiences and are committed to the perpetual enhancements of initiatives, policies, and practices. We hold ourselves accountable by providing the space for authenticity, growth, and equity for everyone.

AlixPartners has embraced a hybrid work model to provide flexibility and support our employees’ work-life integration. Our hybrid model combines a mix of in-person (at client site or AlixPartners office) and remote working. Travel is part of this position, but the frequency may vary based on client, team, and individual circumstances.

What you’ll do

An opportunity has become available for a Consultant (equivalent to an Associate in banking/Big 4 terms) with excellent financial analysis and written communication skills to join our Corporate Finance team in London. Over the course of the past 5 years, we have defined a clear pathway for consultants looking to build a career in Corporate Finance with no prior experience required. The role will at times be demanding, but with that will also come significant reward, and the ability to accelerate quickly. You will be working on complex, time-sensitive engagements with very high stakes and with visibility to leadership from day one. Throughout our process, you will have the opportunity to speak to one of the several team members who joined the Corporate Finance and Capital Advisory team via this channel, to understand how we support you in forging your career and tailor your learning to facilitate individualized progression.

Corporate Finance is a key part of our practice and provides a range of specialist services including business disposals, accelerated M&A, acquisition advisory, management buy-outs, equity and debt fund-raising and valuations. The Corporate Finance team plays a key role in the firm’s sector initiatives and has particular expertise in Consumer Products, Tourism, Hospitality & Leisure, and Industrials. Working with the firm’s broader client base, the corporate finance team advises on projects across all industries. The team provides advice to a range of stakeholders including corporates, management teams, private equity and hedge fund investors and lenders.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
